At 6 pm, a homeless man showed up in the lobby of the Scioto County Jail and refused to leave. Witnesses reported that he was talking out of his head. Deputies escorted the man out of the lobby.
At 1 am, a caller reported a man acting strangely in a field next to a 7th Street house. They said he appeared to be attempting to burn a car.
